If there were a Devil, then DRM would be one of his favorite handiworks. The only people copy protection inconveniences are those trying to do legitimate things with software/video/whatever. Pirates are slowed down not a jot, and the cracked versions are spread worldwide within minutes (okay, maybe hours sometimes) of release. When will the idiots applying "protection" realize what time-wasting buffoons they are?

I don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's hard to pronounce.

Hmmm... so, basically: install, run a WMA through it and it strips the DRM stuff off?

EDIT: FreeMe says something about license can't be found; the second one looks horribly complex; tunebite only does 30s of a track if you don't pay for it.

I think I'll do it my way.

So, now Rita is a category 5 hurricane. I believe right now it's actually stronger than Katrina was when it hit land. Pretty spooky hurricane season.

Yes, they're all saying it's stronger than Katrina now.

I've just read that someone downloaded it and got mp3s instead of WMAs. Hmmm. I might have to take another look later this evening. Hopefully I won't have to pay again to get it again to find out if Things Have Changed.

Annoying morning. This is what just happened to me. I got up to go to the restroom. There's a door that separates the office part of the building from the restrooms, kitchen & gym. It's usually propped open, but it wasn't today. When I came out of the restroom, I discovered the door was locked. How it locked, why it was locked, have no idea. It shouldn't have been. But I couldn't get back into the office. Now, I was the only one in the building and everything else was locked up tight. I could get outside, but it didn't do me any good because I couldn't get back in. I had one phone that will let you call local numbers and a phone book from 2003. No cell numbers or anything. And of course I couldn't remember anyone's cell numbers off the top of my head. I called about 5 different people, but couldn't get ahold of anyone. Finally, after about 15 or 20 minutes, someone else came into the office and rescued me. I was soooo annoyed with myself by now because I usually always carry my keys around and I didn't have them on me today.

...and now, back to the tea and sympathy. Well, coffee and sympathy.
